Daniel Forfang (born December 28, 1979 in Tromsø) is a former Norwegian ski jumper. He had 34 World Cup starts, with a 5th place in Kuusamo in 2005 as his best individual result. He also won a team competition in Lahti the same year.

Forfang retired before the 2006/07 season, feeling that he couldn't continue with the lifestyle a ski jumper must have to succeed. The pressure of maintaining a low body weight was the main reasons for Forfang's retirement.
